PestPatrol
($39.95) - rating = 96%
This is probably the best known and most widely used trojan virus system and with good reason. It has over 55,000 "pests" (trojans, worms, trojan variants, virus's, spyware, adware) in it's database . This is the system we now use ourselves. It simply offers more than any other anti virus program we have found, and is still competitively priced.

What makes Pest Patrol so special?
Pest Patrol is a very powerful tool as it not only detects and cleans trojans and back doors, it does the same for a whole host of other "nasties" such as worms, spyware, adware, DoS tools, ANSI bombs, hostile java, ICQ, sniffers, spoofers, password crackers and more...
The system also leaves it up to the user whether to delete or quarantine any suspect file, whether to exclude certain files or folders from scanning. It allows all files to be scanned, including compressed files and those in hidden directories.
The only down side we could find to Pest Patrol is that there is a bit of configuration you need to do to get the best out of the system, but fortunately this doesn't take to long.

KeyPatrolTM: Generic Keylogger Detection
KeyPatrolTM detects both known and unknown keyloggers, using both behavioral and pattern-matching algorithms. Even if a new keylogger gets to your computer before it gets to our lab, you are protected.
KeyPatrol's behavior-detecting algorithms are able to detect a keylogger simply because it has hooked the keyboard, and is watching your typing. Pattern-matching algorithms compare every running file with a database of pests to determine if the running program is a known keylogger.
These pests often lurk silently on your computer until something - or someone - sets them off. When that happens, you could lose passwords, personal data, credit card numbers, and - if you telecommute and connect to your office via a VPN - open up a back door for the hacker into your entire company network.

Why PestPatrol?
The biggest threats to your network security may not even be visible to your current security tools. Trojan horses, hacker tools, and spyware can all sneak on to your network, bypassing existing security measures, and lurk silently until something - or someone - sets them off. And when that happens, you could lose passwords, customer data, intellectual property - even your web site or entire corporate network.
PestPatrol is a powerful security tool that detects and eliminates: -
- Trojan horses: Denial-of-service attack agents, remote access trojans (RATs), and more
- Hacker tools: Password crackers, key loggers, port scanners, and more
- Spyware: Rogue applications that "phone home" user and system information without permission. These pests create "back doors" into your systems, compromising network security and exposing the organization to litigation. PestPatrol detects and disables or removes thousands of pests quickly and safely.
- Detects 55,000 pests in more than 10,000 pest families

"I use one of the major, well-known anti-virus products to protect my computer. I also use one of the highest rated personal firewalls available. I felt that my computer was safe. PestPatrol found malicious programs and files that my up-to-date anti-virus program was missing. I strongly believe that PestPatrol is a necessary supplement to my anti-virus and personal firewall programs. I could not be happier with the program and the superior support that comes with it."
- Clint Edwards
"PestPatrol found two pests that "The Cleaner" missed. And for that I am grateful Thanks again, and best of luck with PestPatrol... It does what it promises to do."
- Joseph C. Cogliano
"PestPatrol complements anti-virus software for ultimate protection. Not only does it detect potentially dangerous programs like trojans and worms, it also detects spyware and many other malicious programs. I was impressed with the speed in which PestPatrol checked my files and also with the completeness of the database. I ran this on several networks and the detections were numerous. It was quite an eye-opener!"
- Chuck Russell, Senior Partner, Collective Intelligence, Inc.
